Listened to Kryptographik Episode 30 today, featuring Barry “Nuge” Nugent of Geek Syndicate and Fallen Heroes fame. Barry talks candidly about his creative process, the joys and perils of self publishing, and his TV deal for Fallen Heroes.
A fascinating episode, well worth your listening time.
The last, I think, of our podcast appearances from the Bristol Con 2009 is featured in Comic Book Outsiders Episode 46.
Chaired by Scott, from Comic Book Outsiders, the Orang Utan panel metamorphosed in a round table discussion on indie comics that also features Stu and I, and the guys from Geek Syndicate.
It’s somewhere in the region of 45 minutes of unplanned, unscripted, but hopefully insightful and amusing banter between the two studios as we share war stories from the world of small press comics.
Particularly worth listening out for are the moment where I blantantly repeat myself and then shamlessly deny it, and the moment that Pete Rogers confesses that the biggest hurdle Orang Utan Comics face is Monkeys with Machineguns 
.
For the benefit of the tape, I think he just means that we’re both tall.
Many thanks to Scott for chairing the panel and special thanks to Peter Rogers and Ian Sharman for sharing their panel with us … absolute gentlemen as always.
Barry and Dave, the Geek Syndicate, very kindly made mention of Monkeys with Machinegun’s MWM Live! mini-event at the Bristol Small Press Expo in Geek Syndicate – Episode 119.
I must admit, I was a bit concerned about words in these guy’s mouths when I wrote “Scott vs. Geek Syndicate” for Scott from Comic Book Outsiders, but it seems to have gone down well. Writing dialogue for fictional people is much easier, as they rarely come back to you and want to talk about it …
The tables are turned on Barry and David as Geek Syndicate are interviewed at the Bristol Comic Con. A great insight into how one of UK geekdom’s most popular podcasts got started, with the added value of Barry looking a little bit sinister in the early moments
An excellent, albeit short, interview with Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill by the guys from Geek Syndicate is now now available online.
Alan’s advice? “Self publish“. Phew, glad I was on the right track!
